Ayushman Bharat Health Scheme (AB-PMJAY) Launched by PM Modi

PMJAY-Ayushman Bharat is the biggest government sponsored healthcare scheme in the world. This scheme is not based on caste, gender or religion but includes deprived rural and urban families. In the upcoming days, this health assurance scheme will benefit lower middle class, middle class and upper middle class people by providing them indirect jobs. The central govt. believes that this “Modicare” scheme will become a game changer for the next general elections. The summary of extent and importance of the scheme are explained in brief below:-

The central govt. will ensure that no eligible beneficiary is left out (especially women, children and senior citizens). In addition to this, there is no cap on the family size and age of people under PM Rashtriya Swasthya Suraksha Mission (PMRSSM). People can check name in PMJAY beneficiaries list to check whether they are eligible or not.

2. How much will Ayushman Bharat Yojana Cost?

Ayushman Bharat Yojana may cost around Rs. 5,000 crore this year because it is rolled out in the month of September 2018. From next year, it is expected that it would cost around Rs. 10,000 crore after its roll-out from next year. In a single year, there are likely to be around 8 crore beneficiaries and govt. targets to cover around 10 crore people in a single year by FY 2020.

Ayushman Bharat – PM Jan Arogya Yojana will run on a 60:40 basis where central govt’s share is around 60% and 40% share is of state government. In the 1st year, out of the total expenditure of Rs. 5,000 crore, central govt. may bear the burden of around Rs 3,000 crore. This share of central govt. will increase to around Rs. 7000 crore in FY 2020. Pradhan Mantri Jan Arogya Yojana (PMJAY) is going to subsume Rashtriya Swasthya Bima Yojana (RSBY) which was launched in 2008 by the UPA government.

Glad that #AyushmanBharat, one of the largest healthcare initiatives globally, is associated with two greats- Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar and Pandit Deendayal Upadhyaya.

As per the reports of international rating agency Moody’s, Ayushman Bharat Yojana is credited positive for insurance companies as AB-NHPM scheme would result in higher premium growth. Moreover, NHPS scheme will also provide insurers with cross-selling and servicing opportunities.

All the states were asked to setup kiosks at all empanelled hospitals with PM-JAY branding. This initiative will cover all such hospitals with publicity material like banners on AB-PMJAY scheme, giving uniforms to Arogya Mitras who will help people about NHPS scheme at hospitals and distribute pamphlets to incoming patients.

Ayushman Bharat Health Assurance Scheme

The state govt. would also perform outdoor advertising and would hold panchayats in villages. This branding would assist beneficiaries to know where to contact to get PMJAY services. Publicity of AB-NHPM scheme, especially the audio and visual communication, will help in reaching the beneficiaries effectively. People who are still finding it difficult to understand the details of PMJAY scheme can contact the AB-PMJAY helpline number – 14555. Around 1.5 lakh Health & Wellness Centers will be opened across the country to provide appropriate treatment to the needy people.

It is extremely disheartening and sad that Lower Middle Class and Lower of the Middle class i.e. Between 5.00 to 7.50 lakhs beaten by Taxes from 360 degrees , ever increasing inflation and Low interest on Bank savings and No Job Opportunities for their children find Living difficult in this country. Here I am not against BPL families at all as this class up to 7.50 lakhs is closely aligned to BPL families economically as OBCs to SC/ST class. Here since Medical cover is for Family ( Spouse and Children and dependent parents ) I have taken total family income in above gradation and not individual income alone, may be noted. On behalf of my late learned father who suffered paralysis and my Bed-ridden mother , I convey blessings to Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modiji and Hearty congratulations to Health ministry. I request Health ministry to carry this message and keep on P.M.s table which would give him all inspiration and boost his moral strength to do Justice to economically depressed middle class also wherein he himself has continuously struggled and suffocated to reach the present illustrious and glorious office. My Warmest regards to him. …….. V.N. Phadnis ( M : 94489 21263 )
